How To Use Instant Tethering On a Chromebook

Instant tethering is currently working on my Chromebook. It might take few more weeks before this feature is rolled out to the Stable channel. When it does, this is where you should come to find out how to use it!

What Is Instant Tethering ?

Instant tethering is a quick way to connect to your Android phone’s mobile hotspot. Usually, you set up the hotspot with a password, connect to that WiFi network from your phone / tablet / Chromebook, and enter the new password that you just set up. With Instant tethering, you will not have to enter that password.

Provided you have logged into the same Google account on both the devices.

If you are using a Chromebook and an Android phone with the same Google account, you can use Instant tethering. All you have to do is click Connect from your Chromebook’s Settings app.
